I would get a MH conversion bulb for your 400 watt hps for the vegg stage, then flower with the hps. You'll have a good idea of what other lights you will need/want then

No I am not, I do not use chemicals or any fertilizing in the flowering stage. I meant to imply that I am far from the limit, and merely offer my experience and estimated weight. Its an example of light/soil/air nothing else. If I had c02 and grew in hydro I would hit the ceiling. This...

same thing is 10 bucks less at home depot if you wire em yourself. Im starting to realize (I have 4 duct booster fans) that i need real CFMs to control odor and environment.

Transplanting is not very traumatic especially if you takes steps to avoid it. (I use myco added xplant soil and liquid fish) I would say xplant unless you are already starting to form buds, you have to consider what early flowering is. 0-10 days is early 10-20 days you get your sex...

YOU DONT GE THE LIGHT INTENSITY. Yes you can place a CFL around the plant, at 2 inches say, all around, if you covered every inch of the plant the light reaching the interior would still be inferior to light from an HID precisely because there is LESS inensity from a CFL. Again only from...

I can pull a pound from 6-7 plants under a 1000 hps in 73 days flowering. Thats nute free in FFOF ballpark at .5-6 grams per watt I dont know if thats good or bad but its easy. This "academic argument" is so ridiculous it makes my head hurt, but i call a mulligan as im way way way to stoned on...

? ideas give me a pic of the 2inch tall plant with 8 nodes. Something is fishy and we need to figure out that issue

Edit: More to the point, the HASH is always better but the bud isnt that different then what is available commercially in cali (some would argue worse) unless your dealing with a coffee shop that is bud focused as opposed to commerically focused. Funny I thought that compared to alot of...

What right does the goverment have to determine what drugs are good and what drugs are bad. Liberals see this as an issue of decrimilizing a drug that was wrongly criminalized, give the gov't a mulligan. Libertarians question the right of the goverment not only to tell me what drugs are bad, but...

Ducting and an air cooled hood would solve that problem.

True dat, not the point. I know your an experienced grower, would you rather have a 600 watt hps 200$ or a 150 watt HPS 99$ and 100 bucks worth of CFLs and black lights. The OPs statement is that he can do better using small main lamps and broad spectrum bulbs for that spectrum adv. He needs...

Dude.... Again, your a basically saying "I am sure there is [some benefit] (becuase of common sense) despite not knowing for sure if there is any. First, the CFLs use little electricity compared to HIDs so they must help..ect.. Read the posts above. The first issue is lumen intensity, which...

I know, tiny shoots right? I just wish I had more headroom, topping might be in order but it really isnt my thing. The bags are cool but I dont dispose of them, I wash em out and reuse. They ARE a bit flimsy and for the record I like rigid buckets, just could not find a nursery supply store...

Get a digital ballast, they run both bulbs, brighter, use less electricity and are silent. PLEASE get a digi, I regret getting a magnetic ballast. I just use a MH conversion bulb in my HTG supply grow bright ballast.

Get a 1000 watt HPS with an air cooled hood, pipe it, and 5gal buckets filled with FFOF. You cannot go wrong.

My god...... This is why people are sad that mom and pops are being raped by Home Depots...pappy knew you needed flat white for that reefer. Oh and blink, funny analogy

HIDs produce denser buds, that's a fact. I love t5s for vegging but their downside is lumen intensity. I use them for veg because while they can illuminate a 12" plant fine they would not work for a 24" plant nearly as well, and I dont trim foliage. Because the light they produce is not as...

This is why im all over the phrase "right is wrong, left is stupid" Obama is 100% against marijuana legalization. He is, his controllers are, his lobbies are, the democrats are. There is no pro legalization candidate except Republican ron paul. Neither party is for legalazation, consider the...

ok...First... CFLs will not do anything to enhance a powerful HID light, lumen are lumen, they dont stack, and even on the bottom corners of your plant I would take a 1000 watter 4' away over a cfl any day. It certainly will not help at all, but nothing would hurt per se...xept your wallet...

dude, your livin crazy SIMPLIFY MH or a bank of t5s for veggins 1000watt hps lamps. reptile light? you are dreamin
